Shake, Rattle & Turn That Noise Down! - How Elvis Shook Up Music, Me and Mom

Author & Illustrator: Mark Alan Stamaty

Why Selected: Comic form illustration book

Literary Merit: This is a story of a boy's fascination with Elvis but is also a really good History of Rock and Roll book for younger kids. It's a great way to show kids the roots of rock in a fun way they will enjoy. Seemingly based on a true account of the author's childhood.

Share: In a lesson on rock and roll. Just to have a fun day in class.

Appeal: Grades 1-4

Awards: None
